Chapter 909 This is called the personality charm that a villain will never have
Although it may be difficult for others to find Zhili, Xu Quanquan is a son of heaven, so it is very easy to find a big demon.
I just don’t know what she’s going to do with Zhili.
"How dare you show up?"
Staring at Xu Quan, his eyes were red, and his voice was as cold as winter.
She almost resisted the urge to kill the man in front of her immediately, and sneered every word:
"What? Are you here to keep an eye on me?"
"Haha, don't worry."
"I won't leave until I kill you all."
"..."
There were fierce ripples in the small lake behind him, and an invisible murderous intention filled the air.
Zhe Li's words were not only a way of venting her anger, but also her true plan.
After all, after being deceived once and seeing how shameless Wei Changtian was, no matter how stupid she was, she would never be deceived a second time.
Zhili understood that even if she really went to Daqian Capital with Wei Changtian, the latter would not return the Holy Fruit.
In this case, all she can do is take revenge.
Of course, Zhili knew very well that she couldn't do this now, and it was hard to say whether she could even escape from Linchuan.
But as long as she is allowed to live, she will spend her whole life waiting for an opportunity to take revenge on Wei Changtian.
Including the two "accomplices" Xu Quan and Yang Liushi.
Therefore, if Zhili hadn't been afraid that Xu Quan's appearance was a trap, she would have slapped him long ago.
Even though she was wary in her heart, her overwhelming anger still made her slowly raise her hand, as if she could not help but swing out this palm at any time and kill the man who had lied to her on the spot...
The ripples on the lake surface became more and more turbulent, the white skirt swayed in the wind, and the long hair was scattered around the corners of the clenched lips.
Should he kill one person at all costs first, or hold back for the time being to save his life... His divided eyes were full of unwillingness and disgust, as if he would make a choice in the next moment.
Faced with all this, Xu Quan didn't say a word. He just shook his head slightly with a complicated expression, and then took out three purple fruits from his arms while Zhili's eyes suddenly became astonished.
"..."
Taking a step forward, Xu Quan seemed to want to hand over the holy fruit to Zhili.
But the latter took a step back immediately, and his expression became more alert.
"...I'll put it right here."
After being stunned for a moment, Xu Quan didn't come any closer. He just bent down and gently placed the holy fruit on the ground, then stepped back a few steps away.
The warm summer wind blew by, and the two of them were about six or seven steps apart.
Three fruits exuding a mysterious aura were located in the middle of the two people, lying quietly on a white stone, reflecting a faint purple light in the sunlight.
"What tricks are you playing?"
After taking a look at the three holy fruits, his breathing became a little faster.
But she did not act rashly, but looked up at Xu Quan and said in an extremely cold voice:
"This is a trap."
"...Demon King, this is not a trap."
Xu Quan lowered his head and seemed to sigh, his tone a bit harsh.
"I once said that whatever I promise, I will try my best to do it."
"Since we have agreed before that as long as you bring the demon soldiers to Linchuan, I will return the three holy fruits, then naturally I must fulfill my promise now."
"The holy fruit is here now. You should be able to tell whether it is true or false."
"So... you just take it."
It could be seen that Xu Quan wanted to say something else in the end, but he still didn't say it.
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Zhili again, then turned around and walked away along the path by the lake.
People are gone, but the holy fruit remains...
Zhili was stunned for a moment, Xu Quan's voice still seemed to be echoing in his ears.
After some hesitation in my mind, I quickly made a decision.
After a moment, she carefully activated an inner force and slowly wrapped the holy fruit back into her hands.
Crystal clear as jade, round as beads, with a unique breath that is weak but real...
it is true!
Xu Quan didn’t lie to himself! He actually returned the holy fruit!
Suddenly his eyes widened, and he subconsciously looked up at the figure who had walked away.
Then, not knowing what she was thinking, she suddenly blurted out:
"wait wait wait!"
"You, stop for me!"
"..."
...
Instead of the previous hatred and ferocity, there was a bit more eagerness and doubt, and he even took a few steps towards the back of the figure inexplicably.
Seemingly realizing that his behavior was a bit "inexplicable", Zhili quickly slowed down his pace and walked slowly to the opposite side of Xu Quan, who had stopped and turned around with a straight face.
"Is it Wei Changtian who ordered you to return the Holy Fruit to me?"
The voice became cold again, but this time it didn't seem so sincere.
Zhili stared at Xu Quan and asked the most critical question, and the latter was silent for a long time, and then shook his head gently.
"no."
"..."
Xu Quan was not lying to Zhili. What happened just now was indeed not what Wei Changtian meant.
It was he who decided to fulfill his promise and return the Holy Fruit as promised...
There is no doubt that in the eyes of most people, this behavior is undoubtedly a kind of "betrayal."
After all, Xu Quan is on Wei Changtian's side no matter what. Even if the latter acts rogue, he may be able to persuade him, but he should never do anything privately that is harmful to Wei Changtian's interests.
This is not a question of which comes first, "morality" or "loyalty."
If we have to compare it this way, it would be "morality towards the enemy" and "loyalty to one's own people".
Then, those who choose the former are undoubtedly traitors.
Because of this, Xu Quan was not without hesitation. It could even be said that this was the most difficult choice he had ever faced.
But in the end he chose to keep his promise to Zili.
This may be related to the fact that he and Wei Changtian do not have a strict "superior-subordinate" relationship.
But more importantly, it is because of his life creed of "doing what he preaches".
Xu Quan knew that he could not persuade Wei Changtian, so he could only do this.
Maybe this is indeed betrayal, maybe it will make him pay a very serious price, maybe it will even drag Xu Suisui down.
But Xu Quan never regretted it.
Because in his opinion, he just did the right thing...
"Demon King, please return to Changliu Mountain as soon as possible."
Looking at Zheli with a complicated expression, Xu Quan said softly:
"No matter what, you have already obtained the Holy Fruit, so don't think about revenge anymore."
"You are no match for the young master. As long as you don't seek death, the young master will not look for trouble with you..."
"how about you?"
Suddenly, Zhili interrupted Xu Quan coldly: "If you return the holy fruit to me, you won't be afraid that Wei Changtian will kill you?"
"Thank you Demon King for your concern. I don't think Young Master will do it."
Xu Quan smiled and said in a relaxed tone: "Besides, this has nothing to do with you, as long as you know that not all human beings are untrustworthy."
"Okay, that's it."
"We are destined to meet again in the future."
Waving his hand, Xu Quan was probably thinking about how to explain to Wei Changtian when he went back later, so he didn't say much to Zhili and turned around to leave.
But the next moment, Zhili bit his lip and suddenly took two quick steps to catch up with him.
